Rhythmbox seek doesn't work as expected

[Vytas]

Rhythmbox: 0.9.3.1

After seeking with a seek bar, playing sometimes (~50% cases) stops on both MP3 and Vorbis. It is possibly gstreamer unrelated cause totem media player works fine.

No errors in terminal.

After such stopping, when I press Pause/Play, the palying resumes.

[Vytas (vytas)]

Strange, same problem in banshee.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

Thanks for your bug. Do you still have that issue? Does it happen on some specific files or all the mp3 and ogg with rhythmbox and banshee? What soundcard do you have? Does the application hang (maybe bug #35447 which is fixed now)?

[Vytas (vytas)]

Yes, the issue is still there. It does not seem to depend on the specific file. The application does NOT hang, also totem works fine.

Maybe it is hard to describe the every aspect of the bug precisely, so Ive made a screencast which is self explanatory (it's a GIF, no sound, but you can notice if a time is counting or not).

I sometimes had the same problems but not as often as you, Vytas. But I don't remember having it lately... I'll add a comment here when it happens again for me with some backtrace information

[Sebastian Dröge (slomo)]

Haha, that's good. The first time I tried it again after replying here it hanged... ok, so here we go. first attachment is the complete backtrace with all the mono junk in there... the second is only the gst-related threads

I have a feeling that this mostly happens on vbr files but not sure yet...

[Sebastian Dröge (slomo)]

backtrace with all threads

[Sebastian Dröge (slomo)]

backtrace with all the gst threads

[Sebastian Dröge (slomo)]

And I can confirm that this only happens with rhythmbox and banshee, not totem. Maybe caused by the life-seeking that both have...

[Sebastian Dröge (slomo)]

banshee running with GST_DEBUG=3. killed after a stalled seek

[Sebastian Dröge (slomo)]

ok, this time without colours... an mp3, killed after stall

[Sebastian Dröge (slomo)]

the same with a vorbis file

[Sebastian Dröge (slomo)]

should be assigned to gst-plugins-base0.10 imho as this should be a playbin problem

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

enough tasks without that one

[Vytas (vytas)]

sorry that was mine misclick

[Sebastian Dröge (slomo)]

ok, this is fixed upstream (was in fact a duplicate...) 4 days ago :) we'll get it with the next upstream release

[Clemens (clast)]

It's not fixed for me in the latest dapper :(
That's why I changed the status back to "confirmed".

[Sebastian Dröge (slomo)]

But it is fixed upstream thus we will get it when they finally released new tarballs which should be the case in the next days
